The reason is that day light saving time ends in US and Europe.
Since Japan is too near the equator and does not have daylight saving 
time,  if the time is not moved one hour earlier for US and Europe,
it would mean that the for JST (GMT +9) the starting time would be
one hour late.. (And means that in Japan the telecon would start from
1 AM, which would be a bit tough for people in Japan.)

So, one option which the other participants kindly agrfeedd to had been 
to shift the meeting one hour earlier in US and Europe after the 
daylight saving time starts so that at least for
people in Japan, it would still be from midnight.

Best Regards
Toshi
